It seems that so far nobody is interested in sponsoring this upload.
Since it concerns an existing package currently in Debian, it would be
great if somebody managed to find a little time to upload it.

The current version in testing/unstable is quite old and somewhat
buggy and I really think we should ship this new, updated package
instead. Otherwise I might have to ask for the removal of the package
and have users install it directly from upstream -- really not
something that I'd like to happen since there is a (IMHO) perfectly
fine package available, just waiting for a kind soul to do the upload.

cheers
